Well, what is it and who sings it?

~riette Thu, Jun 25, 1998 (17:05) #1

Need to think about that one . . . give it some time.

gotta vote for SchoolHouse Rock! I'll listen to the tape on my way to work as a show of alliance (and to sing along!)

~riette Sat, Jun 27, 1998 (07:20) #5

Never heard it - what kind of music is it? Pop? Rock? Techno? (�hudderrrr. . .)

More like Saturday morning cartoon singsong animation from the 70s and early 80s... intentionally catchy tunage to get through an educational message. (wow, SHR is HARD to explain, it's always been a stardard to which other educational 'programs' were compared to for me!)

hey, didn't they do "the bill"?

~KitchenManager Tue, Jun 30, 1998 (23:48) #8

yep...

~Wolf Tue, Jun 30, 1998 (23:50) #9

saw that thing the other day and about fell out....

It's musical cartoons about educational stuff, like how a bill becomes a law, and how grammar works ("Conjunction junction, what's your function?" is my all-time personal favorite). It's the kind of stuff you'd see on "Sesame Street" now, except at the time it was ground-breaking.

~riette Mon, Jul 6, 1998 (04:31) #12

OH, I see. I adore Sesame Street when I was young.

D@mn! My typing is appaling with this half broken front paw . . . only another two weeks, and the plaster will come off. Thank God. No more balcony jumping in the near future I hope!

I wonder if Alexander knows about this topic...hmmm...

~autumn Thu, Apr 29, 1999 (00:07) #15

Is he a gen-Xer? I have no idea. He's so hip!

~KitchenManager Thu, Apr 29, 1999 (14:59) #16

don't know about that, but he is a music guy...

~autumn Thu, May 6, 1999 (14:35) #17

Then he's hep!

~KitchenManager Thu, May 6, 1999 (15:02) #18

what is it with you and sax, Autumn?

~autumn Wed, May 26, 1999 (15:19) #19

I watch far too much TV...

~KitchenManager Wed, May 26, 1999 (17:16) #20

and therefore, too much sax or not enough sax?

~autumn Fri, May 28, 1999 (23:17) #21

The sax is the thing.
